(Bellum Owner Maxwell Hickman Official Statement)

Well MMATycoon Fans, the wait is finally over. Bellum Fighting Championship has finally made its way to Tokyo, Japan for the very first time ever for what should be "The Biggest Card in Bellum History". And all the fights for this event is under Pride Fighting Championship Rules. 3 Rounds, 10 Minutes, and inside a MMA Ring. You know one of the things about Bellum is we like to give young fighters an opportunity where in most MMA Organizations they would be fighting on the under cards fight, finally being expose into the MMA Scene. Most MMA Fans Today can talk all day about guys like Golden Glory, Jeremy Tonal, Don Marciano, and the list goes on and on. Im not trying to say that they should be at the caliber like those guys, but they have shown to myself that they too can be tougher than what people actually think of them. This card shows all the things I just talked about and the exception couldn't be as high as it is right now. We have some really excellent fights on this card and they should all be exciting fights to watch. We have Damien Melendez Vs Luigi Megani where the winner will be next for the Bellum Heavyweight Title Shot, Waleed Malik the Light Heavyweight Champion facing Rashad Eveans, and the Bellum Season 2 Middleweight Champion Buddy Barnett Facing Bellum Middleweight Champion Kamil Wecowski. Any Questions from the Press?

Shawn Colby of MMAROCKY.NET- Max can you tell about the Tokyo Fights?

Max Hickman- Damn I knew something was missing! We have a thing I call "Tokyo Represent Fights". Frank Serra and Hiroyuki Saitou are two local fighters from Tokyo and have both agreed to fight each other on the card so they can get some exposure. In fact the last Bellum International Event which was in Rio, we had Ryan Lewis and Jared White faced off on that card and both won Fight of the Night and earned a Contract with our friends at UPG RIO. So you never know, fights like this could be really fun to watch with High Stakes.

Larry Bubba of CountryMMA.COM- What other fighters are you excited to see on the Card?

Max Hickman- Easy Everyone! Guys like Jeff Hatton, Furio Falcone, Yves Morello, Brian Stanson, Larry Williams, Thiago Gracie, Ryan Rpin, I could sit all day and name everyone.

Nick York of BoxMDAMAGEMA News- How concern are you that some of these fighters on the card will never be the same when you are going 3 Rounds for 10 Minutes?

Max Hickman- Well thats why they are trained athletes and they may never be the same but are warriors simple as that.
